The Week 12: Remember Your Training of CS:GO's Operation Riptide made us begin the last hundred of meters until everything will be over because there are only 4 more weeks left that will bring to us the most waited Platinum Coin of the operation, so how better to start this week's tasks if not by polishing up CS’ fundamentals, as it name says?
Just like in the previous week, we'll have a lot of diversity among the four missions released that are meant to train players for real competitive play. You’ll either test out the entire CSGO arsenal in Arms Race or run matchmaking in different modes. But in the end, each of these will contribute on making you become better from what you were before.
Though, let's better take everything step by step and have a proper look of each of the missions released that will help you earn 10x stars as rewards:
- Wingman - Extraction: where you have to win an entire match OR get 21 winning rounds from separate matches [★★★]
- Guardian - Blacksite - Deep Water Blackout: being needed to kill 20 bots with SMG weapons [★★]
- Arms Race - Rip Current: where you are required to get 3 streaks of 3, 4, and 5 kills in a row without being killed [★★★]
- Casual - Group Sigma - Balanced Regulator: you have to make 10 kills in a match with different weapons OR 20 in total from more matches played [★★]
Each of the four missions available are pretty easy especially if you are not playing with randoms, but I and my boyfriend decided to begin with the last one where we were supposed to make 10 kills in a single match with different weapons so our plan was to each of us get in separate teams and decide on a place on the map where to always meet and kill each other with different weapons while the other one was bringing new weapons for his partner.
We managed to complete everything in less that a match but keep in mind that if you play with randoms you should begin by always having a different pistol to start with and then get one by one the weapons from the rifle and SMG categories that will help you get those kills faster.
Since we were already kind of warming up with the Casual mission, we continued our journey with the Arms Race one where you need to score killstreaks of 3, 4 and 5 kills. Arms Race is a pretty quick mode where you respawn as soon as you die and most likely there will be enemies already so you won't live for too long, but you really have to take advantage of the good weapons like M4A4 or AK-47 which will help you get more kills than you do with the basic guns.
However, a good plan is to find a safe place where to camp and wait for the enemies to come over, but also keep in mind that if you get 3 kills and then make 2 more, you will basically complete all 3 killstreaks needed without being needed to start everything all over again from the first kill.
The next mission we decided to take care of, was the Guardian one where the best you could do is to get a P90 and stick close to a corner from where you get those kills. SMGs are not the best when it comes to damaging the armour but make sure to always have a Zeus in your backpack for the heavy armoured enemies which require more bullets to be consumed, lol.
And last but not least, we played one more Wingman match which we discovered in this operation quite late but which is basically the same thing as Competitive (Short Matches) but where it's 2vs2 instead of 5vs5. Happy us we won the match from the first try and there wasn't needed to get into any other matches since it was a weird map to play on! 😇
